everyone bailed on reading club last night except laura and thomas and the housemate and i, so we sat around instead watching monty python sketches and telling extremely offensive racist jokes (how do you fit a hundred jews in a volkswagon? put them in the ashtray). also, parsing sentences such as "Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo". (can you do it for "Fish fish fish fish fish fish fish"? and do you know any others because i'd like to hear them.)
